PROCESSO PARA SEPARAR MONO-OLEFINA(S)TERCIARIA(S)C4-C7 PRESENTE(S)EM UMA MISTURA DE HIDROCARBONETO C4-C7 CONTENDO DIOLEFINAS,E PROCESSO PARA HIDROGENACAO DE ETERES INSATURADOS NA PRESENCA DE ETERES SATURADOS

摘要

In a process for separating C<4> to C<7> tertiary mono-olefins(s) present in a C<4> to C<7> hydrocarbon mixture containing diolefins which comprises selectively reacting said tertiary mono-olefin mixture with a primary alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst to convert it to tertiary ether(s). separating the tertiary ether(s) from the unreacted hydrocarbon mixture and containing said tertiary ether(s) in the presence of a catalyst to decompose it to tertiary olefin(s) and a primary alcohol. the improvement which comprises hydrogenating the tertiary ether(s) after it has been separated from the unreacted hydrocarbon mixture and prior to decomposition to saturate the unsaturated ether(s) formed from the diolefins present in the hydrocarbon mixture.
